I have both Ripx DAW Pro and Melodyne Studio. But I'm not one of those precise users who have the manual in their head and can use anything. I have Ripx DAW Pro, but I only use it as a Ripx DAW, because it's enough for me when creating my own songs. I inherited Ripx DAW Pro by buying the highest version in 2020. For "Brian Hughes" - I couldn't find the "split note" function in the manual, but that might be my fault because I have a hard time navigating the English text and I'm translating it into Czech using Google translator. I'm looking for it in the manual, which I find in the Help menu in open Ripx and the link is right at the top. You don't have to deal with it, I don't need it for work, I'm just curious. Yes, Melodyne is better than Ripx in some functions, but sometimes it's also inaccurate, so I'm glad I have both applications. For "Uncle Paul": What about trying not to delete the main vocal, but just to lower it below the level of audibility. (I have no experience with this) - It's just a thought. iZotope uses one of the cleaning methods that they don't erase the areas for cleaning, but they reduce the volume below the level of audibility. Of course, they reduce it even more with a smaller margin, because some of us have better hearing. If I then add a new lead vocal to the recording, no one will hear the original one...
